I was disappointed in Hive Minds Give Good Hugs. It ends up being about the standard utilitarian villain who kills and conquers for the greater good. But it rules out or doesn’t address the ways in which the villain could fail. What if their conquest doesn’t actually make anything better? It doesn’t ask that, because they succeed and the process is skipped over.
